Fractional one-sided measure theoretic second-order elliptic operators and applications to stochastic partial differential equations

Abstract

In this work we introduce and study fractional measure theoretic elliptic operators on the torus and a new stochastic process named W-Brownian motion. We establish some regularity and spectral results related to the operators cited above, more precisely, we were able to provide sharp bounds for the growth rate of eigenvalues to an associated eigenvalue problem. Moreover, we show how the Cameron-Martin space associated to the W-Brownian motion relates to Sobolev spaces connected with the elliptic operators mentioned above. Finally applications of the theory developed on stochastic partial differential equations are given.
